He is there. I will try again later. Title: Re: hello, goodbye. Post by: The Burgomaster on September 28, 2022, 04:29:54 PM Sending my best to a funny guy with a big heart.

This is not the kind of new I want to hear right after leaving an evacuation shelter.
I mean, the part where he sounds better is hopeful, but it's bad just nearing he got to this state. This place wouldn't be the same without him. Title: Re: hello, goodbye. Post by: Allhallowsday on September 29, 2022, 09:19:38 PM I have a number that should work direct. Busy all morning, Ron was maybe out for tests, spoke to yet another nurse. No answer later. Everybody is lovely, it is a big busy place.
I have that phone number and a room number. Title: Re: hello, goodbye. Post by: Newt on September 30, 2022, 09:00:04 AM I have a number that should work direct.
